tracing/probes: Fix to record 0-length data_loc in fetch_store_string*() if fails

Fix to record 0-length data to data_loc in fetch_store_string*() if it fails
to get the string data.
Currently those expect that the data_loc is updated by store_trace_args() if
it returns the error code. However, that does not work correctly if the
argument is an array of strings. In that case, store_trace_args() only clears
the first entry of the array (which may have no error) and leaves other
entries. So it should be cleared by fetch_store_string*() itself.
Also, 'dyndata' and 'maxlen' in store_trace_args() should be updated
only if it is used (ret > 0 and argument is a dynamic data.)

Revert "tracing: Add "(fault)" name injection to kernel probes"

This reverts commit 2e9906f84fc7c99388bb7123ade167250d50f1c0.

It was turned out that commit 2e9906f84fc7 ("tracing: Add "(fault)"
name injection to kernel probes") did not work correctly and probe
events still show just '(fault)' (instead of '"(fault)"'). Also,
current '(fault)' is more explicit that it faulted.

This also moves FAULT_STRING macro to trace.h so that synthetic
event can keep using it, and uses it in trace_probe.c too.

# 672a2bf8 29-Dec-2022 Song Chen <chensong_2000@189.cn>

kernel/trace: Provide default impelentations defined in trace_probe_tmpl.h

There are 6 function definitions in trace_probe_tmpl.h, they are:

1, fetch_store_strlen
2, fetch_store_string
3, fetch_store_strlen_user
4, fetch_store_string_user
5, probe_mem_read
6, probe_mem_read_user

Every C file which includes trace_probe_tmpl.h has to implement them,
otherwise it gets warnings and errors. However, some of them are identical,
like kprobe and eprobe, as a result, there is a lot redundant code in those
2 files.

This patch would like to provide default behaviors for those functions
which kprobe and eprobe can share by just including trace_probe_kernel.h
with trace_probe_tmpl.h together.

It removes redundant code, increases readability, and more importantly,
makes it easier to introduce a new feature based on trace probe
(it's possible).

# 2e9906f8 12-Oct-2022 Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

tracing: Add "(fault)" name injection to kernel probes

Have the specific functions for kernel probes that read strings to inject
the "(fault)" name directly. trace_probes.c does this too (for uprobes)
but as the code to read strings are going to be used by synthetic events
(and perhaps other utilities), it simplifies the code by making sure those
other uses do not need to implement the "(fault)" name injection as well.

# f1d3cbfa 12-Oct-2022 Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

tracing: Move duplicate code of trace_kprobe/eprobe.c into header

The functions:

fetch_store_strlen_user()
fetch_store_strlen()
fetch_store_string_user()
fetch_store_string()

are identical in both trace_kprobe.c and trace_eprobe.c. Move them into
a new header file trace_probe_kernel.h to share it. This code will later
be used by the synthetic events as well.

Marked for stable as a fix for a crash in synthetic events requires it.
